Mint State 1916 Standing Liberty Quarter
1916 Standing Liberty Quarter. MS-62 (NGC).
Offered is a significant Mint State example of the legendary 1916 Standing Liberty quarter. Warmly toned in iridescent reddish-apricot and powder blue, the obverse exhibits the most vivid and varied patina under direct lighting. The strike is impressively sharp for a non-Full Head example, and we note only trivial softness to Liberty's head, the shield and, on the reverse, the eagle's breast. Satiny to softly frosted in texture, this is a desirable example of a key date issue that would do justice to an advanced collection. It is a pleasing coin for the assigned grade that should attract very strong bidding.
PCGS# 5704. NGC ID: 242Y.
